What kind of roaches? What's the weather like? FWIW, I'm in Texas, and don't yet own bees, but when dry summer weather comes, wood roaches migrate to places where they can find shelter and moisture. They are large, reddish-to-dark-brown and they fly. During dry spells they'll come into the house, but normally they'd rather be in a nice moist rotten log outdoors.
